Repent “And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 3:2 Just as John the Baptist preached repentance in the wilderness, so must we make a call to repentance in ours. Do not fear; our God is merciful and full of grace. Confess your sins. Repent. Be baptized into eternal life […]
How to Like Yourself
How to like yourself. Eesh, is this something we really need to think about in today’s world, with its enormous chaos and confusion? How to like yourself – yes, it’s an important thought.

There is none holy as the Lord. “There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.” 1 Samuel 2:2 God, our holy Father, sits on the throne of thrones. He is the Alpha and the Omega: the beginning and end to all we […]
